10w is not a lot and will not do well in the long run. if its just for the first little leaves till you switch to a bigger light then its ok.
ideal is 100w led high efficiency lighitng per plant. CFL and HID lighting have different values of watts per plant.
Good Luck!

Seeding do not need light in germination till the leaves are open to get light. Warmth, and moist is about all they need to germinate. Well, Plus dark. I run my light for warmth. Plus I dome seed if in substrate till sprout.

Do I need to lower my lights?Do I need to lower my lights? I'm using a Kingbrite 240W Samsung lm301h and I just went into flowering period. I think the light is a bit overpowered for the room, so I've left it at about 21 inches above the tops of the plant. At this distance, all areas are getting 27k lux.

I Made a Big MistakeI forgot the timer open and the plant has been lighting for 2 days now. Normally I have to turn the lights off at 6 pm. What should I do?
Should I wait until 6pm? Or should I turn it off and switch to a new light schedule?

Is that possible to do grow light with Samsung LED strips?Going deeper into idea of doing the quantum board from scratch but instead SMD LED's there are lots of strip LED options. So I want to ask you guys if I have an aluminum plate with a heat sink and coolers, can I fix those stripts there? Or can I rip them off with a heat gun?Setup. Lighting

LED LightsAnyone used the Phlizon Cree COB 2000w lights?
I’m running two in a 8’x4’ under a scrog net. 5 weeks into veg but nowhere near where they should be. Used only the COBs in veg as some suggested but had to put on full blast today and hope for some speedy growth before I flower them
